Awww *hug* for you Billy, I know what you're going through cos I get down moments like that even at my age! I've found it helpful lately to write my feelings in a journal when I've been really low, maybe you could try the same thing as it helps work out what's upsetting you.

I used to avoid my family a lot when I was around your age as they got to me at times, always having a go at me for no reason and mocking everything I did. Like I'd spend whole Sundays in my room just so they wouldn't keep on at me and because I had nowhere else to go to get away from them. My friends hardly invited me out with them and I got fed up listening to everyone talking about what they'd done together while I got left out. I don't know whether you feel the same about your friends, but being alone was the one place I felt comfortable at your age. Once I met my bloke then I had better things to do and was often out with him so I didn't have to endure things so much, so hopefully things will change for you too.

Good luck, you can U2U or MSN me whenever things get bad cos I know you think a lot of me.

Nicola
